Last night the Giants celebrated the 10th anniversary of that marvelous 2012 World Series championship team. Logan Webb then threw eight scoreless innings allowing only five hits and two walks while striking out nine. It was arguably his best start of the year. The Giants got just enough to eke out a win. Not much has gone right for the Giants this season mostly because players have not performed anywhere close to what they did last season. The exception is Webb, of course. He's delivered exactly what the Giants were hoping he would after his breakout performances last fall.
Alex Wood goes this afternoon (1:05 Pacific) with a chance for a sweep.
Go Giants!
